Hi, K. I wanted to weave the images with the idea of Columbus sailing because his spirit controlled his desire to reach the Indies. It takes much bravery and adventure to sail unknown territory. I couldn't do it! ;))

Then thought of how our creative spirits can create such love and beauty, and overcome, hopefully, the destruction and eventual death of the human race. Not to get too melodramatic, but the way things are going, I'm truly concerned for our future generations.

“If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956
